"Unable to open project" error

[John Boro]

For some reason, I'm getting the error "Unable to open project" when I launch
CVI.
When I click on "OK", the project loads as normal. Everything works fine
from there.
Does anyone know why I'm getting this annoying pop up?

Open the PRJ file with an editor and look at it if it's corrupted,
read-only...

I am getting the same error with perfectly good .PRJ files. I think this has something to do with installing other applications in the wrong order, but so far I've only been able to get rid of it by reinstalling the OS. So, I just live with it. I'd like a real solution, if anyone knows....

In reality, a .prj file is just a text file, and thus can be viewed under notepad. For your situation, you can check your project file in this way, and make sure that all pathnames are correct. Another way I found to work around this is to start a new project, place all the files that you had in the previous project into the new project, and then save this new project under the old projects name, overwriting the old project. This seems to clear up the pathname errors. If these still do not work for you, drop me a line back. Thanks a lot.
